Ministry of Defense: The US Department of Energy has become the main customer of work on military biologyMOSCOW, May 5 - RIA Novosti.

The US Department of Energy is the main organizer and customer of work on military biology in different regions of the world, said the head of the radiation, chemical and biological protection troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov.

"I would like to note the close cooperation between the Ministry of Energy and the US Department of Defense. So, the Pacific Laboratory of the Ministry of Energy is headed by Stephen Ashby, who simultaneously holds the position of vice president of Battelle, the main contractor of the Pentagon," Kirillov said at a briefing.

The Ukrainian Scientific and Technical Center (UNTC) acted as an intermediary between the US Ministry of Energy and Ukrainian research organizations, he added.

"Let me remind you that the distribution of funds under the grant system is entrusted to the UNTC and the International Science and Technology Center (ISTC). The chairman of the governing council of this organization, Ronald Lehman, is also the director of the Center for Global Security Studies at the Livermore National Laboratory, which is also part of the United States Department of Energy," Kirillov said.

According to him, the director of the office in Kiev, the attache for Energy of the American Embassy, Sean Anderson, deals with the organization of the research activities of this ministry in Ukraine.

The materials released by the general at the briefing also include other employees of the US Department of Energy. These are Andrew Vogt, Heather Bell and Valerie Brusilovsky (all former energy attache of the US Embassy in Ukraine), as well as Stefan Binkley and Richard Weller.

"Thus, along with the Pentagon, the Ministry of Energy is a key organizer and customer of military biological research in Ukraine and in other regions of the world," Kirillov stressed.

The United States Department of Energy (DOE) is an American government agency responsible for the energy and nuclear security of the United States. DOE is also actively conducting biological research.

The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, along with the Los Alamos National Laboratory, is one of two centers in the United States whose fundamental task is the development of American nuclear weapons.
